and you can just see the other one in this pic - http://www.megalithomania.com/show/image/1057/Knowth.htm


Dunno which is the most unsightly the footbridge over the kerb stone or the Newgrange facade .


It's a close call. The worst bit is where the footbridge leads to. A whacking great hole inside the cairn so that you can see its stratigraphy (is that the right word?). Bloody awful and could have been done in the visitors' centre or in a shed at the edge of the site.
